Our San Diego State Aztecs vs Washington State Cougars Prediction

Looking at this game, it is possible that the wrong team is favored. The Cougars are the slight favorite, but nothing about their Week 1 performance suggests this should be the case. They only beat Idaho thanks to a game-winning field goal, rushed for a total of three yards as a team, and were even out-gained in total yards by the Vandals.

As for the Aztecs, they nearly played a perfect game and showcased their ability to be a well-balanced offense. San Diego State’s defense also held Stony Brook to just 46 yards passing and 49 yards rushing. The Cougars are likely to improve on last week; however, given what we have seen so far this season from both teams, our San Diego State Aztecs vs Washington State Cougars prediction is: San Diego State Aztecs ML.
